The Mother Theodore Community is dedicated to two principle apostolates: teaching and parish life.<\/p>

During the academic year the sisters teach fulltime at the Saint\u00a0Jos\u00e9 S\u00e1nchez del R\u00edo High School Seminary<\/a><\/em>\u00a0run by the\u00a0Institute of the Incarnate Word (IVE)<\/a>.<\/p>

The sisters also serve the\u00a0Parish of Saints Peter and Paul<\/a>, where they assist in religious education, liturgy, sacristy, youth ministry and visits to the sick.<\/p>

Through their life of prayer and imitation of Jesus Christ: poor, chaste and obedient, the sisters seek to be a sign of God\u2019s merciful love in the Parish Community, helping all to keep their eyes \u201cfixed on the things above.\u201d \u00a0(Col. 3:2)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

French Missionary and Saint of the Midwest<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"\u201cEquipped with little more than her steadfast desire to serve God, Mother Th\u00e9odore and her five companion Sisters of Providence arrived at the site of their mission at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana, the evening of October 22, 1840, and immediately hastened along a muddy, narrow path to the tiny log cabin that served as the chapel. There, they knelt in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament to thank God for their safe journey and to ask for God\u2019s blessings for the new mission.\u201d<\/p>

\u201cMother Th\u00e9odore knew that alone she could do nothing, but that all things were possible with God. She accepted trials, trouble and occasions when she was treated unjustly as part of her life. In the midst of persecution, Mother Th\u00e9odore remained true, a faithful woman of God.<\/p>

Mother Th\u00e9odore died sixteen years after she arrived at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods. During those fleeting years, she touched a countless number of lives\u2014and continues to do so today.<\/p>

The gift she gives to each succeeding generation is her life as a model of holiness, virtue, love and faith.\u201d<\/p>
